Matching pursuit
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Matching pursuit is a type of numerical technique which involves finding the "best matching" projections of multidimensional data onto an over-complete basis.
The concept of matching pursuit was inspired by projection pursuit, in which "interesting" projections were found; ones that deviate more from a normal distribution are considered to be more interesting.
